3.2.4 Suction Canister Connections
The system will generate vacuum when the proper modes are selected. The vacuum
connections require a suction canister. The suction canister connects to the suction tubing
from the tissue filter and to the tubing of the vacuum line assembly. The vacuum line
assembly includes a hydrophobic filter and is required to prevent backflow into the
console.

neither has been damaged during shipment. If the packaging or the needle
appear to be compromised, do not use the needle.
Warning:
Do not connect the biopsy needle until the system is powered on.
Warning:
To maintain sterility, leave the protective sheath on the tip of the biopsy
needle.
